Token caching mechanism which supports refresh cache when signingkey rotates.

Copper Contributor

Hi There,

I have a scenario where we use OKTA as identity provider . We want to put the OKTA M2M token endpoint behind API management and cache the token until expires (1 hour). We are using API management external cache to store the token. So that consumers can't request fresh OKTA tokens again and again. The problem arises when OKTA changes its signing key. Anytime OKTA can change the signing key and old token may be present in the cache which will no longer be valid. I need a suggestion to remove the cached token when the validate-jwt policy fails due to signing key changes. 

 

OKTA token Endpoint:https://myorganization.oktapreview.com/oauth2/default/v1/token

CURL: curl --location 'https://myorganization.oktapreview.com/oauth2/default/v1/token' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded' \
--header 'Authorization: Basic {username:password}' \
--data-urlencode 'grant_type=client_credentials' \
--data-urlencode 'scope=clientcredential'

 

Below is my APIM policy code.

              var parsedJson =  (Newtonsoft.Json.Linq.JObject)JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(cachedOKTAResponse);
              string access_token =  (string)parsedJson["access_token"];
